This picture is credited to photographer and postcard publisher Fred Little. Its title is 'Arno's Castle, Bristol. The Exterior of the Roman Bath.' Printed as a postcard, this shows a building that is lost to us although the colonnade stills exists at Portmeirion, north Wales. The credit on the back of the postcard reads 'Little & Barber, buyers of Old English Furniture and Works of Art.'
Arno's Castle is rather better known nowadays as the Black Castle public house at St Phillips Causeway, and is a Grade 1 listed building.
